and ♥ MAKING OUR HOME A HAVEN PODCAST ♥ where we're weaving a bit of joy into every day.

May Your Life Be Like A Basket...Useful...Bountiful...Beautiful...

Basketmaster's Weavings is about my passions, much of which revolves around basket weaving. I weave with reed and I love teaching others to weave. Many of the patterns and styles that I show in the blog are geared to the beginning weaver, or even the brand new weaver. If you have been thinking about wanting to learn to weave, then this blog is for you. Throughout the blog and videos I take you step by step through each and every process of weaving. I want you to be successful in weaving the very first time you try. For the intermediate and advanced weaver, my wish is that you take ideas that I show, mix them up a bit, and incorporate them into your own beautiful creations.

A Basket For Charity - Share a Basket Sunday

When I was teaching for the parks and recs. in Wichita, Kansas they held a charity auction in which they asked for all artists and crafters who taught for them to do a project. The project had to fit into this 5 x 7 frame. So all the instructors, be it wood carvers, mosaic creators, painters, seamstresses, whatever the technique they taught did a piece to fit in a frame just like this one. Mine brought in $35 which I thought was great.

Have a Blessed Sunday,

Nancy

Nancy, that is very clever....I love it! Funny you should mention a charity auction, as I am working on a basket for an auction to raise money for our local library. I'll have to post a picture on my blog when it's finished!

Welcome to Basketmaster's Weavings

Hi Friends and welcome!
I'm so glad you are here and I would like to introduce myself to you.
I'm Nancy Jacobs, a wife to my college sweetheart for over 25 years and a mom to three older children. We are in the process of moving from New Mexico to Michigan. I'm fascinated at the differences that several states make in culture, food and more.
I enjoy most aspects of homemaking, cooking, gardening and crafting of all forms especially machine embroidery. Finally I love and follow the teachings of Jesus.
Please sit and stay awhile!
Thank you for reading and be sure to visit often. You can always e-mail me at basketmaster_nancy(at)yahoo(dot)com.
Have a blessed and beautiful day,
Nancy
